When Neil Gaiman wrote Coraline, his publisher stated that it was too scary for children, he made a deal, let her child read the book and if she liked it to publish it. She was actually terrified but wanted to know what happened next so bc of her we have the book and movie!
Yeah apparently the book is much scarier. Other Father was not helpful, and his "pumpkin" form was described as more rotted and melting into a ball of flesh. Wybie didn't exist, and was only added so Coraline would have someone to talk to. Finally, there was Something Else in the tunnel between worlds. Something older and far scarier than Other Mother, that knew about Coraline and could have caught her at any moment if she lingered too long. So yeah. Thank u Gaiman sir.
If I had a button for every time Kieth David voiced a magic black cat with a mysterious past in an animation that kids shouldn't watch, I'd have two. Not a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Hazbin hotel fan I see 😂 If you worded it “magic black character” you would have 3 because he voiced the shadow man in princess in the frog as well 😂 That’s why I like that Husker combines his 2 past characters in a way. The cards, dealing with souls, and friends on the other side (Alastor) from the shadow man. And being a cat and helping out others by talking to them from coraline. 😅
If you've seen Danny's and Matthew McKenna's Hazbin Hotel episode 2 review , you'll remember that they both made a comment about how Alastor's full demon form looks like the Other Mother from Coraline. And with Keith David being the VA for Husk , I'm surprised that nobody's written a crossover fanfic of Coraline and Hazbin Hotel, or one about Alastor secretly being the offspring of the Other Mother.
Fun fact: Pumpkin dad was the less horrifying version of who the dad actually was. In the book, she eventually found his decomposing body in the basement. He looked like a melting magot, his arms and legs twigs and his button eyes falling off, yet somehow he was still alive and calling out for her. There was nothing she could do for him You're welcome for this horrifying tidbit
This movie scarred me so much, that I hate being in the same vicinity as a Lalaloopsy doll, because I think it’ll come to life and shank me, but I do still love it and it became an instant classic for me.
I have finally come to the realization of why I hated those dolls growing up. I still hate button eyes and I have a sneaking suspicion its because of this movie. Oh boy.
Danny constantly being like "damn Other Mother, slow down and let her enjoy it!" Like yes, that's the point! She's love-bombing Coraline. She's drowning her in affection and gifts so this neglected 12 year old won't notice all the other horrifying shit going on!
I remembered Coraline being 11. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought in the movie and book it stated somewhere she was 11. Always possible I'm wrong though 🤷
This movie is ripe for an analysis as an allegory not just for the risk of predators around children, but also the harm of parents falling into the trap of ignoring their children and brushing them off.
Another fun fact: the fog is actually its own being and that’s why it’s always following Coraline around so whenever she stays longer in one place the thicker it gets, and it also comes to her windows.
Hey Danny, fun fact. The sowing kit the other mother is using in this scene isn’t even a sowing kit. It’s a kit used to fix corpses before their funeral. That’s why there’s a hammer and bone saw in the mix. 1:33
And that's why I want to be Cremated when I die! Autopsy if I die from Bizarre circumstances but then I must be Cremated immediately after, I want a Viking/Jedi/Hunter/ Time Lord Funeral!
YOu wanna know something _really_ terrifying? The Other Mother (or Beldame) isn't the only creature in the original book. The _Tunnel_ is something too. it isn't the colorful array you see here, it is dark and it feels... alive. When Coraline flees through it at the end the book reads: "It was colder in the corridor, like stepping down into a cellar on a warm day. The cat hesitated for a moment, then [...] The wall she was touching seemed warm and yielding now, and, she realised, it felt as if it was covered in a fine downy fur. It moved, as if it were taking a breath. She snatched her hand away from it. Winds howled in the dark. She was scared she would bump into something, and she put out her hand for the wall once more. This time what she touched felt hot and wet, as if she had put her hand in somebody's mouth, and she pulled it back with a small wail.[...] Whatever that corridor was was older by far than the other mother. It was deep, and slow, and it knew that she was there…"
@@Meamery In the original? Nothing to do with the Tunnel if that is what you aks, that never attacks her, it's just.... there. But in the book, Corline defeats the Beldame by a clever ruse, since there is... (drumroll please) no Wibey!!! He is an entirely made up for the movie Character. In the book, Coraline notices the hand following her around (also fun fact: In the book, there is never _ever_ a mention that it is a mechanical hand. So she pretty much hat "Thing" from the Addams Family on her tail) and she sets a trap for it to lure it into the well.
There is a theory that the tunnel is actually the throat of a bigger creature and the other mother lives in its stomach. Theres also something interesting going on with the fog. the channel abitfrank does a few videos about it if anyone wants to check it out.
In the beginning scene of the movie the sand being poured out of the doll isn't actually sand. It's sawdust which is often used for taxidermy. Not just that but the sewing tools, aren't sewing tools but tools that are also meant for taxidermy. Pretty dark, wouldn't you say?
Fun fact its theorised in the clothes shopping scene you can see the other mother “hunting” her prey. Supposedly the ginger lady in the window. Even seems to react slightly when Coraline says “my other mother would buy them for me” and when she was left her dinner and outfit on the table for coraline one can only guess who else could possibly be so important to occupy other mother’s time (parents, real mom’s key was still in ignition and phone on passenger seat, she didn’t even make it out of her car)
I've noticed that a lot of people have started to understand why her parents act the way they do now that they're revisiting this movie as an adult/parent. Especially once you realize that Coraline's mom is wearing a neck brace, not a turtleneck. She's healing from an accident, they just moved, and the parents have a deadline to meet. I'm sorry Coraline, but they have more important things to worry about than keeping you entertained all the time.
As an adult, seeing the movie again actually solidified a lot of my opinions of Coraline's parents from when I was younger. Of course they can't 24/7 keep her entertained, especially with said deadline and the mother recovering from an injury. However, Coraline is 11 years old, so having those things actually *told* to her might've lessened her frustration with her parents. They also evidently don't seem to listen to her, seen when Coraline says she almost fell down a well and her mother doesn't seem to have any reaction. In parenting, communication is important, and they seem to lack it. Additionally, something I only thought of as an adult, they moved into an apartment building where multiple children had gone missing. When you have a kid, researching those things is important for your child's safety. Even if they *did* research, they pretty clearly didn't tell Coraline to be careful. She wandered outside, alone and unsupervised, MULTIPLE TIMES. That's just irresponsible parenting, in my opinion.
That is true. I can understand that the parents have a lot on their plates and don't have a lot of time to keep Coraline. I can also understand that Coraline is both bored and upset about being in a new place. I do get her not wanting to eat the food her dad made. I think the parents could've switched who cooks and who cleans at the very least as long as cooking is not too bad on the mom's neck. I would think it would be fine if she is able to clean work on a computer that could possibly hurt her neck as well but that is something we will never know for certain
Yes! And a lot of what children say is exaggerated so when Coraline is like "I almost fell down a well today, mom" - It totally makes sense for a busy working parent to be like "uhhuh" cause it was absolutely an exaggeration and the mom was stressed and busy atm. Like Coraline DIDN'T almost fall down a well.
But they don’t even try to listen or communicate with her. They don’t explain any of this: why they’re stressed, the importance of what they have to do, that they don’t have as much time for her, etc etc. They barely seem to know her at all, her interests or likes and dislikes. Her dad tells her to go count the windows and doors, for example. One of the reasons she’s lured in by the Other Mother is because she actually feels like she’s being given attention. She’s moved away from all her friends, to a boring and desolate house with strange neighbors, and her parents don’t give her any attention. It’s fine to be busy, it’s not fine to not treat your child as not worthy of communication. Their whole attitude towards her, even if they have reasons for it, is a repeated sense of “you’re a nuisance, go away, I don’t have time for you.” Every parent has struggles they’re going through, but as parents with a child they have a responsibility to emotionally nurture their children and EXPLAIN what is going on. They do not do that. If Coraline felt supported by her parents, she wouldn’t have been drawn in by the Other Mother.
The scene that is legit terrifying to me in this movie (I looooove spooky things, but I'm unable to watch actual rated R horror) is when Coraline speaks with the ghost children and you can see the deep indents in the bed where the ghost children's bodies must've been.
The bodies weren’t just there, they decomposed there. She ate their souls but not the body. The puddles are from the body decomposing. There is another puddle on the ground too.
I clearly remember a scene that traumatized me as a kid, where after she threw the cat at the other mother and she returned to her own world. The cat comes back with button eyes and she sobs (and i did to) Me and my dad remember it but no one else does.
I wish more adult horror movies were like this. Like really playing on childlike fantastical beings, but with the added adult fears of noticing the OTHER things that aren’t quite right. Like even as ADULTS there are things about this movie that are still downright horrifying. And I miss seeing this kind of derelict lost in time, muted color aesthetic in movies. And all of it made this movie SO good
I was and still am a big fan of stop motion animation even as an adult. I really enjoyed this movie regardless of how spooky it was, but the one scene with the two actresses talking about stuffing all their dead dogs definitely traumatized me for the rest of my life. Especially as an unsuspecting child watching this movie for the first time 😂😂
It was also made by Laika productions! Everything by them is great!!! Kubo has the world's buggest stop motion puppet btw, go look it up + comparison with the artists
Fun fact: Laika is a subsidiary of Nike. The son of Nike's CEO is the head of Laika or something like that, which is partly how this studio stays afloat. Its also the reason that there always seems to be a promotional laika movie themed shoe that comes out with each film
I remember a lot of people saying Coraline traumatized them as a kid, but for me it was 9. Idk if people know what that movie is, but the scenes of the doll’s soul being ripped out of them by that monster will forever be burned into my brain. Hell, I remember crying at some of the scenes, which is why when I watched Coraline, I wasn’t as scared.
I remember watching that movie when I was around 12 to 13 years old and then I watched it a second time recently (I'm 17 now) it took me so long just to rewatch it because it freaked me out. When I watched it the second time it wasn't as disturbing as I remember. In fact, for some reason I thought the doctor(?) guy, the one that made the dolls did weird disturbing experiments on the dolls but it turns out that I was just remembering the scene where he made them. I guess it was more creepy as a younger kid. The souls thing never creeped me out but it sure wasn't chill about any of it. Also I am glad I found someone who knows that movie, I've never seen anyone talk about it. I also wondered about the lore of that movie cause if I remember right it doesn't give you much information about the world, and now I want a second movie.
@@hunterhello5210 it's called 9, the cover of the movie should be the number 9 glowing green, I believe. You can look it up by typing in Number 9 movie on Google.
Oh jeez, yeah 9 is actually fucking scary ...Coraline is creepy ...9 is also kinda sad and the apocalyptic environment made it worse, so I get u, great movie...but too scary for children...not so much for adults tho 🤔👌🏻
20:18 I'm pretty sure the chicken mask Other Wybie is wearing isn't actually a mask, it's the Other Mother's oven mitt and he's split the outer seam. Idk if this is meant to be a symbolic/meaningful detail- maybe like how the Other Mother's creations don't have the power to add anything to the environment so they have to use whatever she's made or something like that, but I thought it was pretty cool!
20:02 The kids asking for their eyes was my favourite part of the movie (and even moreso the book). Delightfully creepy and sets the stakes for the quest she’s already on (defeating the Other Mother). Also, I love when a movie implies there’s deeper lore.
Same, once was enough. This thing plagued my nightmares for so long snd now, even as an adult, friends or colleagues will bring it up like "Remember that terrifying movie Coraline? Wanna rewatch it with me?" I just immediately leave. I am a chicken and I have accepted this, I am a chicken who shall survive.
As a child, the first 15 minutes of this movie had already scared me off, but when I rewatched it a few years later- I LOVED IT. The uniqe hand crafted stop motion, THE DETAILS?? as someone who HATES horror this is the only horror movie I could ever rewatch, It has a cult following and I understand why ❤
"I could do a 360 kick-flip off of those hips" "Nothing's gonna stop the motions whenever I'm in a room alone w/ her" "Get me in a room with that hot 6 inch clay figure" We rest our case.
I watched Coraline and E.T a lot as a little child, then one day I decided “nope, I hate this now” for no particular reason. I gaslit myself into actually hating them, and refused to watch them for years. More recently, I rewatched them and I actually love them. I have no idea what little me was thinking.
Coraline... Nightmares for 5 months. When I was little I thought the first half meant it was a happy movie, cause I had dreams like this...but then the next end half of the movie just wreaked me.
You think five months is bad? Because of that button-eyed b1&$@, I slept facing the wall for 3-4 years! AND I WAS 10 WHEN I WATCHED IT! But maybe I’m just a pussy, who knows
One thing that struck me in all versions of the story is how most people in the Real World call her Caroline, not Coraline. It really shows how little most people notice her.
There's actually a theory that the sewing kit that she unfolded is actually all mortuary equipment. So that means she was actively preparing for coraline's dead body when she made the doll. Like dead people's mouth is filled with cotton or sawdust? She takes cotton out and puts in sawdust. If you look closely the other mother even has an old bone saw. It's REALLY creepy.
5:42 - That is loosely based on a real painting called _The Blue Boy_ by Thomas Gainsborough. They changed it to make him 1) younger, 2) sadder, and 3) in the style of the movie. I think he turns out to be one of the kids later on.
I did a study a while ago for a class and noticed that the gayer a person is the more they love/watched Coraline. Not surprisingly it is my favorite movie, so take that as you will. Edit: For legal reasons this is a joke. I am well aware a movie doesn’t determine sexuality you don’t need to keep telling me.
I adored stop motion stuff when I was younger and still do now when I first watched this movie it terrified living hell out of me but something in my brain was like "okay but, what if we watch it again?" For some reason it just felt like it was luring me back. And now I'm hooked! I've seen this movie like three times and it is very much my favorite it's just such a great movie, to me All the laika studios movies are
14:56 you think that's bad? The same studios that made this made a movie called The missing Link and one of the characters has individual hair pieces made out of clay I think and they had to pose each and every one of those pieces separately
3:17 when I was a kid I found a stick that looked like Jack Frosts cane in Rise of the Guardians and I'd go outside and pretend to be Jack Frost. Until my brother intentionally broke the stick because I like playing with it.
I always wanted to see a backstory on the sisters in the movie. of their relationship, and her choice to join the other mother. I wish we saw the grandmother sooner to give coraline a story about her sister would tell stories about another world behind the door with other parents and having a other sister the more she didn't believe her the more they fought and argued eventually her sister chose to join the other mother. Also a sequel to this movie would be amazing where we have a older coraline still living in her home protecting the house, and making sure nobody ever finds the door and goes through to the other world.
@@animeprofessor2658 well I feel you could do it in parts the movie starts out with the sisters playing together, then sadly showing one sister all alone. Coraline goes looking for wyborn at his home, but only meets the grandmother seeing her the grandmother already knows she met the other mother and begins to tell the story when she was little. When her sister and her were younger they were the best of friends but later she started talking about little doors and another mother. She teller coraline I didn’t believe her, which started us arguing and fighting. The more they fought the less time I would see her she would be gone for hours but would always come home the next morning. She wanted to see the world too but was told this world was just for her and the other mother, she even tells me there was another sister, we argued more and I someone times would not talk to her. She finishes by saying one day she didn’t come back that one day turned into a month, then a year, then never again. She warns her about the door and the other mother, that I don’t want to see you disappear like my sister.
I remember my dad taking me to watch this at the cinema when I was like 6, traumatised me that bad I started disassociating and drawing dolls with button eyes in the corner of books for months till my dad got pissed and told my mam. She helped me deal with it while my dad was being an insensitive prick.
I remember watching this at my neighbors house and I was like 6 or 7 I don't know and it was half of the movie and I was like she gonna be stuck in there is she and then I brought it on dvd my niece and I watch it at least a few times
I didn't watch the movie until I was in highschool, but I did read the book and the part that messed me up from the book was the Spink and Forcable candy cocoon thing. Except they weren't melted candy in the book, they were giant wads of spiderwebs controlled by a billion spiders.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS REACTION, YOU NEVER DISAPPOINT DANNY. I was so excited during this whole video to see what you will say about this masterpiece that is Coraline. The scene that traumatize me as a kid was DEFINITELY the one when the house turned into the spiderweb and the other mother just jumped to coraline while screaming 💀, I loved to see your reaction to that scene too 🫶🏻
I remember watching this movie at 3 years old with my cousin all the time, and every single time I was TERRIFIED. I have this core memory of being crouched behind my cousins chair while she was asleep, blanket over my head and cowering in fear as the Other Mother chased Coraline. My mother came up behind me and touched my shoulder and it scared me so bad that I jumped like 3 feet in the air and then cried. I wasn’t allowed to watch the movie for ages, and I finally rewatched it for the first time in over ten years a couple weeks ago. I think watching this movie at such a young age is the reason why I don’t find any horror movies scary nowadays.
My friend broke a stick I had been playing with once and I had a panic attack in front of the people I went to school with for the first time. I was almost 14 years old😂😂😂
10:53 Danny: "oh god, i am *not* ready for these two..." Me: "*No one* is ready for Ab Fab..." (For those who are unaware, Ab Fab or Absolutely Fabulous is a british sitcom which stars the women who play the two characters that Danny is about to encounter within this time stamp) [EDIT: So, it turns out that I *somehow* confused Dawn French for Joanna Lumley in terms of being in Absolutely Fabulous. In my defence, I only found that out by googling the show (and ending up in a rabbit hole about it). However, by happy accident, I did discover that Dawn French was involved in the sketch that inspired Ab Fab, so I *guess* I was at least slightly correct?]
This movie is a double banger at least 1) great introduction for kids to the genres of horror. It's psychological, it's dramatic, there's body horror, there's supernatural horror, it's just so much horror 2) it makes them want to read the book Just excellent. We need more from these guys. They make masterpieces
Weirdly enough, I wasn't traumatized by this movie as kid. I watched it, was a bit creep out, and I think I watched 2 more times or something? Compared to the other horror movies I was forced to watch as a kid, Coraline WAS a kids movie to me.
I watched Gremlins when I was 3 bc ma thought it was "cute". It definitely was if you weren't 3 and didn't live in the woods with a bad gremlin reaching for gizmo mobile hanging in your room. Loved horror ever since.
Fun fact about my childhood: the first and only time I watched coraline as a child was in daycare. At naptime. They were putting a bunch of 8 yr olds to sleep. And turned on coraline. Good job adults.
I was scared of buttons for years because of this movie and the music still send shivers up my spine and I’m being completely honest. The first time I saw it with my father and I end up in a mental hospital a a bit after the movie. I have psychosis and schizophrenia, so that was not fun. 😅😢 1:55
Your reaction to Coraline absolutely lived up to the hype we all had for you to do it!! Not sure if you've seen it or not, but I'd love to see you react to Kubo and the Two Strings (another Laika film) at some point! I feel like it kind of fits thematically with your anime focused channel since there's a lot of Japanese cultural elements in it. Along with Coraline, Kubo is my favorite Laika Studios film.
The book is even scarier than the film version. Then again, that’s generally the case. I absolutely loved this film as a kid, it never even scared me. I was too fond of it.
I loved this movie growing up lol it’s one of the reasons I started sewing 😂 I honestly never knew it people had such a big reaction to it, I thought it was cool and fun to watch
As a kid, this was one of my FAVORITE movies! I never found it too scary or had nightmares from it, I just genuinely loved it. Still one of my favorites as an adult!
Coraline never creeped me out. What movie really got to me was that movie 9. I had no idea what I was supposed to expect with that one. Still gives me nightmares and even as an adult I avoid it like the plague!

You know. When Danny said 5:12 to take that fucking doll to the police, I laughed. So hard. But also, it made me realize, absolutely that is something you should do. They’ve been living there for like an afternoon and this kid comes and brings this weird fucking doll, says he found it in the trunk of the grandma’s??? I wouldn’t take it to the police, I would burn the damn thing. Call a priest. Bless the house and still leave. But it also drives home the fact that coraline’s parents were pretty neglectful. They don’t notice? Or Care??? That my daughter has this fucking doll I’ve never seen before, that looks like her? That appeared out of nowhere? Sus
Did you know that the song 'Makin a song about Coraline' Was supposed to be a warning to her(got this from reddit Making up a song about Coraline She's a peach (she is food for the Beldam to eat) She's a doll (referencing the doll of Coraline used to spy on her) She's a pal of mine (the Other Father is shown throughout the movie trying to protect her from the Beldam) She's as cute as a "button in the eyes of everyone" whoever laid their eyes on Coraline (everyone has button eyes in the other world) When she comes around exploring mom and I will never ever make it boring Our eyes will be on Coraline (both a reference to her being watched and their button eyes being sewn onto her) Other double meanings: The Other Father tells Coraline he doesn't need to play piano, the piano plays him. (The Beldam is puppeting him) The Other Father asks "Who's starving, raise your hand" and the piano raises it's hands (the Beldam is controlling the piano, and is hungry for Coraline)
I wish you would've made a reaction to the Other Dad talking to Coraline during the garden chase, about him saying "Mothers making me, I don't wanna hurt you" cuz with Other Wybe and now Other Father, it implies that she doesn't actually have total control of the world she's created
I watched Coraline only recently during Halloween. I have watched it when I was around four and I kid you not Coraline and Kubo and the two strings, and gave me nightmares for about four years.😢
I remember watching this movie for the first time and I literally couldn't finish the movie but when I got older, my nightmares got me curious about the ending and so I did- and while it's still terrifying, I love it so much
it's so amazing [my favorite movie ever] i love everything about it from the animation to the music to the creepiness. fun fact i actually made a coraline doll that looks like me and my siblings are convinced that it's possesed
I remember my mom bought this movie for me when I was like 5 years old and it scared me so bad I legit didn't even look at the disc case again until I was 10! And it's still creepy af now! But it is a masterpiece from an artistic perspective tho! Also the part that creeped me out the most was probably when the Other Mother turned into a giant needle spider women. The jump scare when demon Spink and Forcible pop out of the candy womb. Aaand all the creepy doll parts. And to this day I have MASSIVE arachnophobia and HATE creepy doll movies of any kind! XD
Since you asked, one movie I'd like to see you react to one day, is "The Last Unicorn"! It has beautyfull watercolor aesthetics, and is just in general a movie I have verry fond memmorys of!

When Neil Gaiman wrote Coraline, his publisher stated that it was too scary for children, he made a deal, let her child read the book and if she liked it to publish it. She was actually terrified but wanted to know what happened next so bc of her we have the book and movie!
Yeah apparently the book is much scarier. Other Father was not helpful, and his "pumpkin" form was described as more rotted and melting into a ball of flesh. Wybie didn't exist, and was only added so Coraline would have someone to talk to. Finally, there was Something Else in the tunnel between worlds. Something older and far scarier than Other Mother, that knew about Coraline and could have caught her at any moment if she lingered too long.
So yeah. Thank u Gaiman sir.
Thank god for her
Damn, I guess I assumed it was Tim Burton's work, but other than the visual style, it didn't really seem to suit him. Cool!
@@justanawkwardnerd Also, Tim Burton didn't direct Coraline, Henry Selick did! Which surprised me, but I saw Gaiman talk about it on his Tumblr
@@moonbeam._.darling Damn, thank you! Neil Gaiman is such an interesting guy. I keep forgetting his Tumblr is real.
If I had a button for every time Kieth David voiced a magic black cat with a mysterious past in an animation that kids shouldn't watch, I'd have two.
Not a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Hazbin hotel fan I see 😂
If you worded it “magic black character” you would have 3 because he voiced the shadow man in princess in the frog as well 😂
That’s why I like that Husker combines his 2 past characters in a way. The cards, dealing with souls, and friends on the other side (Alastor) from the shadow man. And being a cat and helping out others by talking to them from coraline. 😅
If you've seen Danny's and Matthew McKenna's Hazbin Hotel episode 2 review , you'll remember that they both made a comment about how Alastor's full demon form looks like the Other Mother from Coraline. And with Keith David being the VA for Husk , I'm surprised that nobody's written a crossover fanfic of Coraline and Hazbin Hotel, or one about Alastor secretly being the offspring of the Other Mother.
You called?
Wow you combined three of the best animated films in one comment and I am loving it
Love both the Phineas and Ferb and hazbin hotel reference
Fun fact: Pumpkin dad was the less horrifying version of who the dad actually was. In the book, she eventually found his decomposing body in the basement. He looked like a melting magot, his arms and legs twigs and his button eyes falling off, yet somehow he was still alive and calling out for her. There was nothing she could do for him
You're welcome for this horrifying tidbit
You know the reason why they didn't add that in the movie it's that they remembered they a
are a Kids movie
Thank you, that’s terrifying 😅😅😅😅😅😅
I both thank you for that but also how dare you lol
Don’t forget, he’s calling out to her as his free will is stripped away from him and he’s forced to attack her
That's scary
This movie scarred me so much, that I hate being in the same vicinity as a Lalaloopsy doll, because I think it’ll come to life and shank me, but I do still love it and it became an instant classic for me.
I have finally come to the realization of why I hated those dolls growing up. I still hate button eyes and I have a sneaking suspicion its because of this movie. Oh boy.
Danny constantly being like "damn Other Mother, slow down and let her enjoy it!" Like yes, that's the point! She's love-bombing Coraline. She's drowning her in affection and gifts so this neglected 12 year old won't notice all the other horrifying shit going on!
And slowly adds new things for her to do to keep pushing limits on what Coraline finds acceptable
Like yeah it's something I've noticed as an adult but it's so good
SHES ONLY 12!?!??!????
I remembered Coraline being 11. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought in the movie and book it stated somewhere she was 11. Always possible I'm wrong though 🤷
That is what our new president is doing…. Cover ups so his followers won’t see all the bs….
Honestly, "fixed Wybie" was the moment child me was like "okay there's definitely something wrong here. No one should be "fixing" other people"
This movie is ripe for an analysis as an allegory not just for the risk of predators around children, but also the harm of parents falling into the trap of ignoring their children and brushing them off.
CJ the X actually did an analysis like this on the movie and also kinda the book.
A therapist also said it was a metaphor for escapism and how it was a warning not to do it so much
Another fun fact: the fog is actually its own being and that’s why it’s always following Coraline around so whenever she stays longer in one place the thicker it gets, and it also comes to her windows.
Hey Danny, fun fact. The sowing kit the other mother is using in this scene isn’t even a sowing kit. It’s a kit used to fix corpses before their funeral. That’s why there’s a hammer and bone saw in the mix. 1:33
He called it an embalming kit, he knows what it is lol
And that's why I want to be Cremated when I die! Autopsy if I die from Bizarre circumstances but then I must be Cremated immediately after, I want a Viking/Jedi/Hunter/ Time Lord Funeral!

YOu wanna know something _really_ terrifying? The Other Mother (or Beldame) isn't the only creature in the original book. The _Tunnel_ is something too. it isn't the colorful array you see here, it is dark and it feels... alive. When Coraline flees through it at the end the book reads:
"It was colder in the corridor, like stepping down into a cellar on a warm day. The cat hesitated for a moment, then [...] The wall she was touching seemed warm and yielding now, and, she realised, it felt as if it was covered in a fine downy fur. It moved, as if it were taking a breath. She snatched her hand away from it.
Winds howled in the dark.
She was scared she would bump into something, and she put out her hand for the wall once more. This time what she touched felt hot and wet, as if she had put her hand in somebody's mouth, and she pulled it back with a small wail.[...]
Whatever that corridor was was older by far than the other mother. It was deep, and slow, and it knew that she was there…"
What happened to her at the end of the book
@@Meamery In the original? Nothing to do with the Tunnel if that is what you aks, that never attacks her, it's just.... there.
But in the book, Corline defeats the Beldame by a clever ruse, since there is... (drumroll please) no Wibey!!!
He is an entirely made up for the movie Character. In the book, Coraline notices the hand following her around (also fun fact: In the book, there is never _ever_ a mention that it is a mechanical hand. So she pretty much hat "Thing" from the Addams Family on her tail) and she sets a trap for it to lure it into the well.
There is a theory that the tunnel is actually the throat of a bigger creature and the other mother lives in its stomach. Theres also something interesting going on with the fog. the channel abitfrank does a few videos about it if anyone wants to check it out.
Sometimes I forget Neil Gaiman wrote this
I heard all of that in Neil Gaiman's voice because I've listened to the audiobook so many times!!
In the beginning scene of the movie the sand being poured out of the doll isn't actually sand. It's sawdust which is often used for taxidermy. Not just that but the sewing tools, aren't sewing tools but tools that are also meant for taxidermy. Pretty dark, wouldn't you say?
That's crazy 😭
That’s true! All the tools are embalming tools used on bodies before funerals.
And sawdust has been used as a filler in food prep in the past. Which explains why Coraline was so full after just a few bites.

Fun fact its theorised in the clothes shopping scene you can see the other mother “hunting” her prey. Supposedly the ginger lady in the window. Even seems to react slightly when Coraline says “my other mother would buy them for me” and when she was left her dinner and outfit on the table for coraline one can only guess who else could possibly be so important to occupy other mother’s time (parents, real mom’s key was still in ignition and phone on passenger seat, she didn’t even make it out of her car)
I loved Coraline as a kid and that probably says a lot about me
Says you were rad as hell
I STILL DO😭😭
@@Spaceloverhere_10same
Same
SAME AND I STILL DO😅
The fact that coraline would probably have ptsd since her parents would remind her of her other parents constantly
I've noticed that a lot of people have started to understand why her parents act the way they do now that they're revisiting this movie as an adult/parent. Especially once you realize that Coraline's mom is wearing a neck brace, not a turtleneck. She's healing from an accident, they just moved, and the parents have a deadline to meet. I'm sorry Coraline, but they have more important things to worry about than keeping you entertained all the time.
Yeah but then again, like the kids watching it, Coraline doesn’t really notice it until later on
As an adult, seeing the movie again actually solidified a lot of my opinions of Coraline's parents from when I was younger. Of course they can't 24/7 keep her entertained, especially with said deadline and the mother recovering from an injury. However, Coraline is 11 years old, so having those things actually *told* to her might've lessened her frustration with her parents. They also evidently don't seem to listen to her, seen when Coraline says she almost fell down a well and her mother doesn't seem to have any reaction. In parenting, communication is important, and they seem to lack it.
Additionally, something I only thought of as an adult, they moved into an apartment building where multiple children had gone missing. When you have a kid, researching those things is important for your child's safety. Even if they *did* research, they pretty clearly didn't tell Coraline to be careful. She wandered outside, alone and unsupervised, MULTIPLE TIMES. That's just irresponsible parenting, in my opinion.
That is true. I can understand that the parents have a lot on their plates and don't have a lot of time to keep Coraline. I can also understand that Coraline is both bored and upset about being in a new place. I do get her not wanting to eat the food her dad made. I think the parents could've switched who cooks and who cleans at the very least as long as cooking is not too bad on the mom's neck. I would think it would be fine if she is able to clean work on a computer that could possibly hurt her neck as well but that is something we will never know for certain
Yes! And a lot of what children say is exaggerated so when Coraline is like "I almost fell down a well today, mom" - It totally makes sense for a busy working parent to be like "uhhuh" cause it was absolutely an exaggeration and the mom was stressed and busy atm. Like Coraline DIDN'T almost fall down a well.
But they don’t even try to listen or communicate with her. They don’t explain any of this: why they’re stressed, the importance of what they have to do, that they don’t have as much time for her, etc etc. They barely seem to know her at all, her interests or likes and dislikes. Her dad tells her to go count the windows and doors, for example. One of the reasons she’s lured in by the Other Mother is because she actually feels like she’s being given attention. She’s moved away from all her friends, to a boring and desolate house with strange neighbors, and her parents don’t give her any attention. It’s fine to be busy, it’s not fine to not treat your child as not worthy of communication. Their whole attitude towards her, even if they have reasons for it, is a repeated sense of “you’re a nuisance, go away, I don’t have time for you.” Every parent has struggles they’re going through, but as parents with a child they have a responsibility to emotionally nurture their children and EXPLAIN what is going on. They do not do that. If Coraline felt supported by her parents, she wouldn’t have been drawn in by the Other Mother.
“Who is butt chin Mcfive head”
Why did I laugh so hard😂
The scene that is legit terrifying to me in this movie (I looooove spooky things, but I'm unable to watch actual rated R horror) is when Coraline speaks with the ghost children and you can see the deep indents in the bed where the ghost children's bodies must've been.
You mean that black puddle?
The bodies weren’t just there, they decomposed there. She ate their souls but not the body. The puddles are from the body decomposing. There is another puddle on the ground too.
I clearly remember a scene that traumatized me as a kid, where after she threw the cat at the other mother and she returned to her own world.
The cat comes back with button eyes and she sobs (and i did to)
Me and my dad remember it but no one else does.
@@Sp00ksOdyssey every copy of Coraline is personalized (seriously, that's creepy, but cool that you both remember)
@@The_Existential_Bread Do you happen to know if there is a copy somewhere with the scene I'm talking about?
I wish more adult horror movies were like this. Like really playing on childlike fantastical beings, but with the added adult fears of noticing the OTHER things that aren’t quite right. Like even as ADULTS there are things about this movie that are still downright horrifying.
And I miss seeing this kind of derelict lost in time, muted color aesthetic in movies.
And all of it made this movie SO good
I was and still am a big fan of stop motion animation even as an adult. I really enjoyed this movie regardless of how spooky it was, but the one scene with the two actresses talking about stuffing all their dead dogs definitely traumatized me for the rest of my life. Especially as an unsuspecting child watching this movie for the first time 😂😂
Also Kubo is another fantastic stop motion animation movie Danny didn’t mention but I feel like still deserves some credit.
It was also made by Laika productions! Everything by them is great!!!
Kubo has the world's buggest stop motion puppet btw, go look it up + comparison with the artists
Coralline, corpse Bride and 9 are my childhood comfort movies lol. Sometimes when I'm overwhelmed I'll put one of them on and relax
Scary human you are.
You are unhinged but I agree
I love 9! My grandma introduced it to me
I remember how terrifying this movie was as a kid and it still is VERY creepy but it is gorgeous
It gave me nightmares as a kid, but I absolutely LOVE IT now
I've seen this movie SO MANY TIMES and never once noticed the devil horns at 19:35 lmao
You and your friends could have formed a band; you could've called yourselves NightCore-aline.
I'll see myself out.
Lmao
Or maybe, the NightCore Align?
No no no, do not see yourself out. You better come back here because I genuinely loved that 😆
Fun fact: Laika is a subsidiary of Nike. The son of Nike's CEO is the head of Laika or something like that, which is partly how this studio stays afloat. Its also the reason that there always seems to be a promotional laika movie themed shoe that comes out with each film
I remember a lot of people saying Coraline traumatized them as a kid, but for me it was 9. Idk if people know what that movie is, but the scenes of the doll’s soul being ripped out of them by that monster will forever be burned into my brain. Hell, I remember crying at some of the scenes, which is why when I watched Coraline, I wasn’t as scared.
I remember watching that movie when I was around 12 to 13 years old and then I watched it a second time recently (I'm 17 now) it took me so long just to rewatch it because it freaked me out. When I watched it the second time it wasn't as disturbing as I remember. In fact, for some reason I thought the doctor(?) guy, the one that made the dolls did weird disturbing experiments on the dolls but it turns out that I was just remembering the scene where he made them. I guess it was more creepy as a younger kid. The souls thing never creeped me out but it sure wasn't chill about any of it. Also I am glad I found someone who knows that movie, I've never seen anyone talk about it. I also wondered about the lore of that movie cause if I remember right it doesn't give you much information about the world, and now I want a second movie.
@@arminarlert2525what's the name of the movie?
@@hunterhello5210 it's called 9, the cover of the movie should be the number 9 glowing green, I believe. You can look it up by typing in Number 9 movie on Google.

Oh jeez, yeah 9 is actually fucking scary ...Coraline is creepy ...9 is also kinda sad and the apocalyptic environment made it worse, so I get u, great movie...but too scary for children...not so much for adults tho 🤔👌🏻
20:18 I'm pretty sure the chicken mask Other Wybie is wearing isn't actually a mask, it's the Other Mother's oven mitt and he's split the outer seam. Idk if this is meant to be a symbolic/meaningful detail- maybe like how the Other Mother's creations don't have the power to add anything to the environment so they have to use whatever she's made or something like that, but I thought it was pretty cool!
I feel like I was the only person that WASN'T traumatized by this movie as a kid
Nah I'm here as well. But then I grew up on fanfiction websites and a fighting game for grown men so take that as you will.

@@elizabethwill4267 Dark Crystal and "the nothing" from the neverending story... probably why I still constantly have an eternal existential crisis
20:02 The kids asking for their eyes was my favourite part of the movie (and even moreso the book). Delightfully creepy and sets the stakes for the quest she’s already on (defeating the Other Mother). Also, I love when a movie implies there’s deeper lore.
I've litteraly only watched this movie once, as a kid, and yet so much of it is burned into my head from sheer terror.
I was six and couldn't stand to see the cover of the film .
Same, once was enough. This thing plagued my nightmares for so long snd now, even as an adult, friends or colleagues will bring it up like "Remember that terrifying movie Coraline? Wanna rewatch it with me?" I just immediately leave. I am a chicken and I have accepted this, I am a chicken who shall survive.
As a child, the first 15 minutes of this movie had already scared me off, but when I rewatched it a few years later- I LOVED IT. The uniqe hand crafted stop motion, THE DETAILS?? as someone who HATES horror this is the only horror movie I could ever rewatch, It has a cult following and I understand why ❤

I watched Coraline and E.T a lot as a little child, then one day I decided “nope, I hate this now” for no particular reason. I gaslit myself into actually hating them, and refused to watch them for years. More recently, I rewatched them and I actually love them. I have no idea what little me was thinking.
Coraline...
Nightmares for 5 months.
When I was little I thought the first half meant it was a happy movie, cause I had dreams like this...but then the next end half of the movie just wreaked me.
You think five months is bad?
Because of that button-eyed b1&$@, I slept facing the wall for 3-4 years! AND I WAS 10 WHEN I WATCHED IT! But maybe I’m just a pussy, who knows
One thing that struck me in all versions of the story is how most people in the Real World call her Caroline, not Coraline. It really shows how little most people notice her.
There's actually a theory that the sewing kit that she unfolded is actually all mortuary equipment. So that means she was actively preparing for coraline's dead body when she made the doll. Like dead people's mouth is filled with cotton or sawdust? She takes cotton out and puts in sawdust. If you look closely the other mother even has an old bone saw. It's REALLY creepy.
5:42 - That is loosely based on a real painting called _The Blue Boy_ by Thomas Gainsborough. They changed it to make him 1) younger, 2) sadder, and 3) in the style of the movie.
I think he turns out to be one of the kids later on.
I did a study a while ago for a class and noticed that the gayer a person is the more they love/watched Coraline. Not surprisingly it is my favorite movie, so take that as you will.
Edit: For legal reasons this is a joke. I am well aware a movie doesn’t determine sexuality you don’t need to keep telling me.
Well, damn. You’re right.
I love Coraline, but the trauma I got makes this movie too hard to watch
I’m gay and I have the same feelings
I concur.
-a queer who watches Coraline at least once a month.
It’s all coming together now… I absolutely loved it the first time I saw it
PTSD from a children's movie? My dear Danny, might I recommend the Brave Little Toaster?
I adored stop motion stuff when I was younger and still do now when I first watched this movie it terrified living hell out of me but something in my brain was like "okay but, what if we watch it again?" For some reason it just felt like it was luring me back. And now I'm hooked! I've seen this movie like three times and it is very much my favorite it's just such a great movie, to me All the laika studios movies are
Not Danny simping HARD for Mal-
14:56 you think that's bad? The same studios that made this made a movie called The missing Link and one of the characters has individual hair pieces made out of clay I think and they had to pose each and every one of those pieces separately
3:17 when I was a kid I found a stick that looked like Jack Frosts cane in Rise of the Guardians and I'd go outside and pretend to be Jack Frost. Until my brother intentionally broke the stick because I like playing with it.
I always wanted to see a backstory on the sisters in the movie. of their relationship, and her choice to join the other mother. I wish we saw the grandmother sooner to give coraline a story about her sister would tell stories about another world behind the door with other parents and having a other sister the more she didn't believe her the more they fought and argued eventually her sister chose to join the other mother.
Also a sequel to this movie would be amazing where we have a older coraline still living in her home protecting the house, and making sure nobody ever finds the door and goes through to the other world.
Do you mind elaborating? I would love to read this story
@@animeprofessor2658 well I feel you could do it in parts the movie starts out with the sisters playing together, then sadly showing one sister all alone.
Coraline goes looking for wyborn at his home, but only meets the grandmother seeing her the grandmother already knows she met the other mother and begins to tell the story when she was little.
When her sister and her were younger they were the best of friends but later she started talking about little doors and another mother. She teller coraline I didn’t believe her, which started us arguing and fighting.
The more they fought the less time I would see her she would be gone for hours but would always come home the next morning.
She wanted to see the world too but was told this world was just for her and the other mother, she even tells me there was another sister, we argued more and I someone times would not talk to her.
She finishes by saying one day she didn’t come back that one day turned into a month, then a year, then never again.
She warns her about the door and the other mother, that I don’t want to see you disappear like my sister.
16:07 i remember watching this in third grade and everyone was freaking out about this part lmao
I remember my dad taking me to watch this at the cinema when I was like 6, traumatised me that bad I started disassociating and drawing dolls with button eyes in the corner of books for months till my dad got pissed and told my mam.

7:46 bi king??
I remember watching this movie at 3 years old with my cousin all the time, and every single time I was TERRIFIED. I have this core memory of being crouched behind my cousins chair while she was asleep, blanket over my head and cowering in fear as the Other Mother chased Coraline. My mother came up behind me and touched my shoulder and it scared me so bad that I jumped like 3 feet in the air and then cried. I wasn’t allowed to watch the movie for ages, and I finally rewatched it for the first time in over ten years a couple weeks ago. I think watching this movie at such a young age is the reason why I don’t find any horror movies scary nowadays.

In my defence, I only found that out by googling the show (and ending up in a rabbit hole about it). However, by happy accident, I did discover that Dawn French was involved in the sketch that inspired Ab Fab, so I *guess* I was at least slightly correct?]
This movie is a double banger at least
1) great introduction for kids to the genres of horror. It's psychological, it's dramatic, there's body horror, there's supernatural horror, it's just so much horror
2) it makes them want to read the book

Weirdly enough, I wasn't traumatized by this movie as kid. I watched it, was a bit creep out, and I think I watched 2 more times or something? Compared to the other horror movies I was forced to watch as a kid, Coraline WAS a kids movie to me.
I watched Gremlins when I was 3 bc ma thought it was "cute". It definitely was if you weren't 3 and didn't live in the woods with a bad gremlin reaching for gizmo mobile hanging in your room.
Loved horror ever since.
This is so real! My mum used to make me watch horror movies as punishment but now I js love them
Fun fact about my childhood: the first and only time I watched coraline as a child was in daycare. At naptime. They were putting a bunch of 8 yr olds to sleep. And turned on coraline. Good job adults.
“Why were you born?” JESUS CHRIST!! Rewatching this scene as an adult has me laughing, really dragged him right there.
I was scared of buttons for years because of this movie and the music still send shivers up my spine and I’m being completely honest. The first time I saw it with my father and I end up in a mental hospital a a bit after the movie. I have psychosis and schizophrenia, so that was not fun. 😅😢 1:55
Your reaction to Coraline absolutely lived up to the hype we all had for you to do it!! Not sure if you've seen it or not, but I'd love to see you react to Kubo and the Two Strings (another Laika film) at some point! I feel like it kind of fits thematically with your anime focused channel since there's a lot of Japanese cultural elements in it. Along with Coraline, Kubo is my favorite Laika Studios film.

You know. When Danny said 5:12 to take that fucking doll to the police, I laughed. So hard. But also, it made me realize, absolutely that is something you should do. They’ve been living there for like an afternoon and this kid comes and brings this weird fucking doll, says he found it in the trunk of the grandma’s??? I wouldn’t take it to the police, I would burn the damn thing. Call a priest. Bless the house and still leave. But it also drives home the fact that coraline’s parents were pretty neglectful.

Danny simping over Other Mother: ✅
Did you know that the song 'Makin a song about Coraline' Was supposed to be a warning to her(got this from reddit Making up a song about Coraline
She's a peach (she is food for the Beldam to eat)
She's a doll (referencing the doll of Coraline used to spy on her)
She's a pal of mine (the Other Father is shown throughout the movie trying to protect her from the Beldam)
She's as cute as a "button in the eyes of everyone" whoever laid their eyes on Coraline (everyone has button eyes in the other world)
When she comes around exploring mom and I will never ever make it boring
Our eyes will be on Coraline (both a reference to her being watched and their button eyes being sewn onto her)
Other double meanings:
The Other Father tells Coraline he doesn't need to play piano, the piano plays him. (The Beldam is puppeting him)
The Other Father asks "Who's starving, raise your hand" and the piano raises it's hands (the Beldam is controlling the piano, and is hungry for Coraline)
Spending the entire video zoomed in on Dannys face is hilarious
I wish you would've made a reaction to the Other Dad talking to Coraline during the garden chase, about him saying "Mothers making me, I don't wanna hurt you" cuz with Other Wybe and now Other Father, it implies that she doesn't actually have total control of the world she's created
Who the fuk is @danny_motta11 ??
I watched Coraline only recently during Halloween. I have watched it when I was around four and I kid you not Coraline and Kubo and the two strings, and gave me nightmares for about four years.😢
I remember watching this movie for the first time and I literally couldn't finish the movie but when I got older, my nightmares got me curious about the ending and so I did- and while it's still terrifying, I love it so much

I remember my mom bought this movie for me when I was like 5 years old and it scared me so bad I legit didn't even look at the disc case again until I was 10! And it's still creepy af now! But it is a masterpiece from an artistic perspective tho!
Also the part that creeped me out the most was probably when the Other Mother turned into a giant needle spider women. The jump scare when demon Spink and Forcible pop out of the candy womb. Aaand all the creepy doll parts. And to this day I have MASSIVE arachnophobia and HATE creepy doll movies of any kind! XD
